WATER!!!!!!!

Proper hydration is essential to good health, and necessary for the prevention of dehydration...

Signs and symptoms of dehydration include:

•Mild to excessive thirst

•Fatigue

•Headache

•Dry mouth

•Little or no urination

•Muscle weakness

•Dizziness

•Lightheadedness

Mild dehydration rarely results in complications - as long as the fluid is replaced quickly - but more-severe cases can be life-threatening, especially in the very young and the elderly. In extreme situations, fluids or electrolytes may need to be delivered intravenously.

When you are exercising try using the following guidelines:

• Drink 17-20 ounces of water two to three hours before the start of exercise.

• Drink 8 ounces of fluid 20 to 30 minutes prior to exercise or during warm-up.
• Drink 7-10 ounces of fluid every 10 to 20 minutes during exercise.
• Drink an additional 8 ounces of fluid within 30 minutes after exercising.
• Drink 16-24 ounces of fluid for every pound of body weight lost after exercise. Hint: Rehydration occurs faster in the presence of sodium, regardless of whether this is provided in a sports drink

 If you don't like water.... try drinking it from a straw or adding a little lemon or cut up fruit to it!

The average human body is about 60 to 70 percent water. This varies by individual based on body type and composition, and on the state of bodily hydration. Most of the water is found within the cells.

Water is about 55-65% of the total human body weight in an adult. In infants, this is as high as 78%. Women (adult) tend to have less water than men due to their percentage of body fat. As we age, the percentage of body fluids becomes less.

DRINK YOUR WATER!!!!
